ago this family appeared here, though
the major portion of our amusement-
loving people did not witness the per-
formance owing to the extremely cold
weather. Those, however. who braved
the storm were well repaid for most
chaste performance. The entire fam
lily are musicians and play on all in
struments. The Clarksburg CIV. Va.)
Telegram of recent date SAYS:
The celebrated Moss Family, the musical
wonders, gave entertainments at City Hall on
Monday and Tuesday nights of this week.
Petite Bertha manipulated the snare and
bass drums with skill not to be surpassed by
anyone of her age. Miss May, in her most
popular ballads and recitations, was highly
applauded. Messrs. H., Frank and Ferd
Moss, and Misses Flora and Lottie are all
musicians of great merit. The greatest at
traction in the orchestra and also in the
music upon our streets was Miss Flora's per-
formance upon the baritone horn Her bass
solos were appreciated largely by all. The
gentlemanly manager, Mr.. George II. Osborn
has our thanks for favors. We heartily COM
mend them to all musc-oving people who
have an opportunity to meet them.
